Slow Down

16 hour workday just to provide
一天工作十六小時維持生計
Everything for his little tyke
一切都是為了他的孩子
No time to sing a lullaby
沒時間去唱搖籃曲
or give him a piggyback ride
或者讓孩子騎膊馬
TV babysitter toys are a bribe
用電視做保姆買玩具哄他
as he speeds out the doorway
當他匆忙地出門
and the car leaves the driveway
駕車駛離車道
The boy runs after his father
小男孩跑向他父親
but his steps are too small
但他的步伐太小
He stretches out his hands to reach him
只能伸出了小手抓向爸爸
as he tumbles and falls.
跌跌撞撞著走去
Slow down
緩一緩吧
I can't keep up with you
我跟不上你
You're getting a little too quick
你走得有點太快了
for me to follow
我跟不上
Slow down
放慢腳步吧
you're getting away from me
你離我越來越遠了
and I don't know how to slow you down
我不知道怎樣才能讓你慢下來
60 years together weathering the times
六十年一起走過的風雨歷程
The good the bad the sweetest sighs
嚐遍了甘苦閱盡了繁華
Watching children of their children smile
看著孩子們臉上的笑容
as they did when they walked down the aisle
當他們穿過婚禮的長廊
Walking canes and wheelchairs slowly wind
撐著拐杖坐輪椅慢慢過去
Twirling the years curling their faces
轉動了年輪褶皺了皮膚
But now he's stumbling faster
現在他走得更快了
towards that finish line
走向人生的終點
She stretches out her hands to reach him
母親伸出了雙手探向了孩子
as he closes his eyes
當他閉上雙眼
Slow down
緩下來吧
I can't keep up with you
我跟不上你
You 're getting a little too quick
你走得有點太快了
for me to follow
我跟不上
Slow down
放慢腳步吧
you're getting away from me
你離我越來越遠了
and I don't know how to slow you down
我不知道怎樣才能讓你慢下來
and I don't know how to slow you down
我不知道怎樣才能讓你慢下來
and I don't know how to slow you down
我不知道怎樣才能讓你慢下來

Slow down
放慢腳步吧
you're getting away from me
你離我越來越遠了
and I don't know how to slow you down
